New Release -- September 27th, 2012

[StoneFace]

I couldn't agree more with you, probably they were the first that asked for Halloween stuff, but maybe they don't relate halloween to death, so go figure.
I think Raul deserves the Ambassador of Goodwill Medal... Kudos to y'all out there..


it could be a new item in the trophy shop... ?;)

See post #8 in this very thread. (http://www.slashkey.com/forum/showpost.php?p=5293190&postcount=8)

I've had neighbours work my facs up to 4 times on one post, twice on each day of validity. Some of the visits seemed to be less than 12 hours apart - late morning and mid to late afternoon, Melbourne time. I'm going to experiment this weekend to see if it's only 8 hours.

I have had that too, I had worked a facility of a neighbor, after a few hours went to work their service (first was factory) but clicked the wrong link and was able to work the factory again.

This was however before the update, I now have a neighbor that is trying to work my facilities again and it has been 13 hours and counting since the first time and still cannot.

[Rob T]

Hi, just a friendly reminder, that anyone is allowed to make comments and give opinions good or bad. but please do not criticize others for voicing their opinions. Thankyou

[Taz D]

I don't know about 8 hours but :rolleyes: some of my neighbours have certainly worked my facilities twice a day and less than 12 hours apart - and not through any steenkin' cache clearing glitch neither. I always thought it was 12 hours but that my time zone might be foxing Slashkey's timekeeping. Might try it myself this weekend to see how many hours I have to wait between visits. All I need is for a money-hungry neighbour to post. :p
I just tried it on 2 that were at 10 hours and that I had already worked when they first came out so maybe it has been changed to 8 hours. I know that before I used to have to wait at least 12 hours.

[SunnyD]

wondering if anyone else is have and enormous amount of pop ups within the game to come work neighbors farms again like we used to get... almost seems like that horrible other game has taken over my farms eeekkkk!!! this is only since the updates on levels and the Halloween release..... and by the way the x025 errors are almost non existent.. hoping it stays that way or gets totally gone....

[Farmdreamer]

[priscillar]

Did we get more cash with the new levels? If so, was it still 1 cash for each level?

Hi,

Yes, and Yes :)

[JacyWindwhispers]

My problem with the funeral home was that my best friend, a neighbor farmer, died of a very agressive cancer. She was a Native American. The very next day, FT came out with Indians and the funeral facilities. Not good timing for me at all. ;(

[Docperk]

I have been getting Dan popups while trying to work neighbors facilities, I thought that was stopped a few releases back.

ok i take back the statement that the x025 errors are better. LOL that is all i get now .. omg it is nutso again....

[priscillar]

One more thing, I have dans on crops I have never planted. Anyone know why?

[Docperk]

Not that it really matters but I was reading the 11st post and the updates and noticed
Post Release Updates - Oct 3rd, 9:00PM EST

-
- Fish count won't go negative anymore on water items

Well I just got through fishing and it still does. There happened to be someone else fishing I was using the new Turbo boat, I don't know what they had.

These pop ups are making me crazy... Wish we could have a check box to opt out of them...like the one for the funeral homes!

[Petuniaflower]

I don't get any POP UPS :confused: I think I am understanding what your saying While I am on my farm about the only thing I see in message is Wait I am Busy from the Avatar

[KnightRider]

These pop ups are making me crazy... Wish we could have a check box to opt out of them...like the one for the funeral homes!

I would love to have an option to stop the pop up about helping a neighbor with their farm, if I want to help I will go to their farm don't need a pop up every minute, you click no on one and in a minute or so another one pops up, tho I do have to admit that this is the only type that does pop up, they don't advertise purchases or anything like other games.

[Petuniaflower]

Now I get it .I don't get the pop ups because my neighbors KNOW NOT TO ASK THAT OLE WOMAN :rolleyes: My neighbors must not have any confidence in me! I am feeling slighted even though i don't want any pop ups :(

[KnightRider]

Now I get it .I don't get the pop ups because my neighbors KNOW NOT TO ASK THAT OLE WOMAN :rolleyes: My neighbors must not have any confidence in me! I am feeling slighted even though i don't want any pop ups :(

The pop ups are automatic, there aren't done by neighbors, cause most of the pop ups are to help neighbors that don't play anymore.

When I click on the "x" I don't get any more of those popups for that session. I hope that works for everyone too.

[KnightRider]

Thank you, it seems to be working, I didn't think of clicking the "x", I have always just clicked on no.

[JW2009]

Yes, I tried it this morning, i clicked X and i was thinking about this thread and it never popped up again, it seems to work :) Thank You & happy FarmingThank you, it seems to be working, I didn't think of clicking the "x", I have always just clicked on no.

[KnightRider]

When I click on the "x" I don't get any more of those popups for that session. I hope that works for everyone too.

When I did use the "x" it seemed like it slowed the game down a little bit, the enqueing black boxes when moving something started showing up, I have never saw those boxes show up like they did this time. I will try it again and see if it slows down again, I might have to just start going back to saying no and live with the pop ups.

[Aussie Rae]

I am pulling a real DUH with the Farm Selector Manager. I am not new to the game & have never had a problem understanding the purpose or advantage of one of the new "tools" provided by the developers..until now. I have facilities & services spread over my first 11 farms. I post my facilities & services work to my neighbors through the facilities manager. I do all of my own harvesting/plowing & planting...my neighbors are not interested in this work as they have enough of their own, and I don't go to the marketplace to hire for various bad experiences in the past. Basically, I do everything myself on my farms. So, is there any advantage for me to use the farm selector manager? I see farmers who post about how excited they are about this...& I'm puzzled about the whiole thing....Any words of advice?? It stinks to get old!

I have used the farm selector manager to move my farms around, I now have my quest farm as 1, my chopping farm as 2, my waters farm as 3, then 4,5 & 6 are farms with flowers as well as crops, 7.8.9.10.11.12 have trees and crops and 13.14.15 are crops only...makes it easier for me as I usually do all the work myself using the combine 6x6 harvest/plow/seed..so much faster than hiring someone..it just a matter of personal preference..lol:)

Yes Sunny I get them too,, about 3 every 5 min. and even if I am working on facilities. I still get the green and red tick about being disconnected, but I hit that green circle and that is it..lol

[Sandy Mae]

Memcache?? I don't understand computer talk. Please explain if you can. I know there is one in every batch and this time it is me. I want to rethank you Devs for my new fishing boat. I tried to explain that about 6 months ago and I did not write it right... It is now a joy to go fishing virtualy!!! I am impressed with the progress of the farms!!! Thanks again

[MIRIAM DEL VALLE]

accelerated time so they can work in manufacturing facilities farmers, faster, every 8 hours, but turns out that when working on own farm for publication, from the facilities manager and end, to close and re-open, all or almost all with pending
's all faster now, like something out of adjustment

[hsdasher@centurylink.net]

I am the widow of a minister and as such have attended may funerals and not one was considered a game. The concept of a funeral being a game is appalling. Funerals are real - very real especially to the family of the loved one

[tonyad]

I feel really dumb but I can't find glads in the store. I have even used the search and nothing? I want to make the spreads for the funeral facility but can't find glads :(

[Tony D]

I feel really dumb but I can't find glads in the store. I have even used the search and nothing? I want to make the spreads for the funeral facility but can't find glads :(Hi, they are only on the gift page. Once you receive them you can plant them, then harvest when ready.

[tonyad]

Duh! LOL :) Thank you very much!

In your News Released Dated Oct. 3, 2012, you stated the following:

"This is a clarification as to whether you can work your friends facilities for second time. The rule that have been in place since we launched the facilities is this: You can work all your friends facilities again when 8 hours has passed after you last worked on any of your friends facilities. So for instance, if you want to work your friends facilities twice a day and you work them the first time at 10AM, you will be able to work them all again after 6PM that same day."

I WANT TO BRING TO YOUR ATTENTION THAT THIS FEATURE IS NOT WORKING.

After numerous attempts, I am unable to work a facility post again after 8 hours. I sometimes have to wait until the following day to work someone's facility post a second time. This rule has not been in place since you launched the facilities. I have never been able to work someone's facilities every 8 hours. Your prompt attention to resolving this issue would be appreciated.

[kittykat1958]

the feature works for me try cleaning your memcache

Love the new update!! You guys rock...

[Tony D]

Hi everyone, just a third friendly reminder , everyone is allowed to provide feedback on the new release. Posts that debate or quote posts about the funeral facilities will be removed.

The developers have acknowledged that this is a sensitive issue for some players , they have added the feature to turn off the display of the funeral facilities in the preference options for people who do not wish to see them.

Thanks for understanding.

[hsdasher@centurylink.net]

Thanks Tony

[Texas Belle]

Thanks Tony, take back about Bad Kitty Kat, lol

On another note, yesterday night received a flash note from Adobe, they upgraded their flash to 11.4. I upgraded mine and no problem up to now. They did say that the upgrade was to enhance their last 11.===.

[Gregh]

After numerous attempts, I am unable to work a facility post again after 8 hours.

I have tested this myself. I can rework facilities posts roughly every 9 hours.

[rj22857]

The working friends facility every 8 hrs does not work at all, even after 12 hours it doesn't work, out with the old and in with the new, no in with the old and out with the new, the new stinks, can work friends facs only once in 24 hours, sorry to complain but.......... what it is is what it is.

I finally just bought the Turbo boat and want to say a huge thank you to the entire Slashkey group encluding the devs as my Carpel tunnel thanks you heaps. Best tool ever. Keep up the good work :)

So for instance, if you want to work your friends facilities twice a day and you work them the first time at 10AM, you will be able to work them all again after 6PM that same day."

In theory this looks great, however - people do not all post at the same time each day - they post through the day, so working all friends facilities at 10AM (as per your example) and then exactly 8 hours later is not accurate. Surely it should be that if we finish working Friend A's factories at 10:10AM then we can again work Friend A's factories at 6:10PM. We finished working Friend B's farm at 10:30 and can then work again at 6:30PM

Hi,

Basically what this is saying is that after you have worked a neighbours facility there must be a gap of 8 hours, where you do not work any facilities, before you can work the neighbours facility again.

[KnightRider]

Hi,

I agree with FarmerWitch it should be 8 hours after you a neighbors farm that you can work that same neighbors farm again, not 8 hours after the last neighbor, cause if you work a farm at 10 am and another neighbor isn't able to get their facilities posted til like 2 pm, then you can't work the first until 10 pm, which is 12 hours after you worked the first one. So you either have to wait to work the 2nd neighbors farm til 6 pm and work the first neighbors farm again or go ahead and work the 2nd neighbors farm and not be able to do the first one again til 10 pm.

[Tony D]

Hi, in regards to the gap between working facilities, this has nothing to do with the new release, it is the way it has always been. If you would like to suggest a change please post in the Suggestions section. This would be the best thread to post in ... http://slashkey.com/forum/showthread.php?t=332042

Hi,

Basically what this is saying is that after you have worked a neighbours facility there must be a gap of 8 hours, where you do not work any facilities, before you can work the neighbours facility again.

So what you are saying is that if I work neighbor A's farm at 08:00 and then work neighbor B's farm at 12:00 I can not work neighbor A's farm until 20:00 and if I work anyone else doing that time I won't be able to work it till the next day after I have slept for 8 hours. :)

[Docperk]

I know it is not anywhere close to a new update but I sure have been getting a lot connection errors lately. Anyone else? I was using Chrome and it started happening every few minutes, tried clearing the cache and it didn't help, switch over to Firefox and it did help but still get em every hour or so sometimes more often than that.

[Franny2]

When I plant strawberries the fields are blank and then then the farm takes at least three tries to load.

[Tony D]

So what you are saying is that if I work neighbor A's farm at 08:00 and then work neighbor B's farm at 12:00 I can not work neighbor A's farm until 20:00 and if I work anyone else doing that time I won't be able to work it till the next day after I have slept for 8 hours. :)Well you don't have to sleep :) just not worked any facilities for 8 hours.

[anglnwhite]

Just looking for a confirmation that when you move your farms around with the selector manager, visitors to your farms see them the way you have set them in the selector, not as the default settings?

I'm grouping my facility farms together, so wanted to double check.

Thanks for your response!

Visitors to your farm will see them the way you have them set up, I moved two of my farms and I have a neighbor that helps and they see my two farms where they are suppose to be and not the way they was.

TROUBLE WITH THE HALLOWEEN BLACK FENCES...
Does anyone have an idea why some of the black fences keep disappearing after I refresh? I have tried buying new ones, moving ones that are there, and saving by placement of the fences...but they keep going poof in the night! Thank you! I sure hope they will be moved to fences tab after Halloween decorations disappear. They are a great material to use in buildings.

We had the same issues with some of the Halloween black fences last year as far as i know these are the same ones we had then.. Hoping that they have made some new Halloween stuff for this year maybe even replacing those with new ones.. but who knows they haven't said we're getting anything new this year... we can hope though..

this does not work, i have tested it and it DOES NOT WORK , not even after 12 hrs, have to wait until following day !!!!!!!

[Taz D]

It does work. You have to read that statement correctly. You can work them again 8 hours after you worked the last one.

[cilmartel]

I have tested several today on the 8 hr work facilities again, and it "DOES NOT WORK" , no way to get the job done, at this rate. not a happy farmer, I have tried several, worked early this am , tried to work again after 8-10 & 12 hrs .... still can not work any I work early 5 am not even after now at 11 pm that is 18 hrs later, some one need to see about this.......uggh !!!!!

[bayoubes]

It does work. You have to read that statement correctly. You can work them again 8 hours after you worked the last one.

Ok, been reading this for over a week now and decided to weigh in:
My hubby and I have played for 3 yrs now and learned very early that we can work the facilities 2 times a day and it still works. Here is how:ex:
We post our facilities at 9am and we each work them. At 9PM we can work again, 12 hrs later no matter how many other neighbors facilities we work. If at the same time we work say 3 other neighbors at 9:15am we worked theirs at 9:15pm. Never could work less than 12 hrs, if I went to work after 11hr 15mins, couldn't work, had to wait till the 12th hr. I suggest if you really want to work each neighbors facilities twice, you write down the time you worked it then go back at the same time 12hr later.

I have been reading all those posts as well and I am getting more confused with each post. I have been playing since May 2009. Like you, I am able to work people's facs every 12 hours, no matter how many I work in between. Thank you...what you said makes perfect sense to me.

Why is there a need to Skip Funeral related stuff? Is this because some ppl don't like the thought of it?

[Taz D]

Yes. Some complained about the facility so the devs gave them an option not to receive the items from it.

[Pustekuchen]

Sorry, does NOT work for me either..even after 12 hours :(

[Taz D]

Sorry, does NOT work for me either..even after 12 hours :(
You must wait at least 8 hours after the last farm you worked before trying to rework one. I have just done that and it does work.

[Texas Belle]

oops see what i get for not paying attention LOL thanks guys... Hadn't even looked in the Halloween store today i should of before i said all i said ... have they fixed the old black Halloween fences??? I didn't purchase them..are they now working better, not disappearing?

And also look on the people section, there are people with costumes on....

[Taz D]

The people in costumes are in the Halloween section, not the People section.

[Docperk]

Ok everybody else is putting it to the test so I decided to test it myself, instead of just commenting on it.
I worked two neighbors at 0615 this morning. Went to work and back home and off of FT for 11 hours and now at 1715 I was able to work both neighbors using the same posting.

[Tony D]

Hi, thanks for all your feedback on the new release :)

I am closing this thread now.
